Time to start packing..

Okay, so I've had it. It's been a good 2 year run. I have built a company from scratch. A profitable enterprise at that. I have had a lot of help along the way and I have learned a great deal in the past two years. I need to get out now.

No, there's nothing wrong with the business. It's going great. Our sales are on a constant growth mode and I am happy to see the profit margins continue to increase. I just came to dislike living in Dubai.

No, it's not the runaway inflation, or the extortion by the RTA (read: Salik) or DEWA or even the landlords. No sir. This, I consider to be part of living in a booming economy. Inflation will come, whether you like it or not.

So if you are interested in buying a services-based company, let me know. I will very soon put up the for sale sign for all to see. I'm getting the hell out of this place. I have given Dubai more than it deserves. If I could leave tonight I would, but I obviously have obligations that are keeping me here for the time being.

This is not a business environment for an entrepreneur.
